AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile having passed its most recent MOT test on 18 June 2025 at 109,248 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears consistent, as the car has successfully cleared the testing following previous failures. While the history shows failures in August 2023 and June 2025, the subsequent passes indicate that any identified faults were addressed promptly to bring the vehicle back to a legal standard. The mileage pattern is notably low for a 21-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,200 miles per year. The data shows a significant gap in usage between the 2024 test at 107,204 miles and the June 2025 test at 109,248 miles, representing only 2,044 miles over a full year. This low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, but it often leads to ageated rubber components, perished seals, and brake corrosion if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the sills and arches, as older Ford Ka models are prone to corrosion that may not be immediately apparent without a lift. Given the low annual mileage, check the brakes for seized calipers or heavily pitted discs caused by lack of use. Additionally, inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or fatigue, as the age of the materials often causes failure regardless of the low mileage recorded on the odometer.
